Report your use of Brokieisms in so-called "real life"
Marge_Innavera:
I often catch myself muttering "there's never enough (fill in the blank), never enough...."
And even more often: "(fill in the blank) don't look right!" It's a kind of shorthand to signal that a fellow Brokie is present. :)

Well, this happened in SF this past weekend.
I landed in the airport, and went to the rental area to get my mini van. The guy behind the counter starts talking to me about the conditions and stuff, and then says to me:
"Now, you have unlimited miles on this car, but that doesn't mean you can drive it to Mexico."
I started laughing, and he asked what was funny. I told him it would be too long to explain.

My friend is trying to lose weight, and so far she has lost 46 pounds. I said, "That's great!" She said, "Yeah, but it's taken me 18 months." I said, "Fast or slow, I just like the direction you're going!"

Well, today I went to a family wedding. My 2nd cousin got married.
On the tables there was a form to fill out, with questions or notes for you to leave the happy couple. The last question was:
"Do you have any advice for us?"
This was my answer:
Always remember the happines of this day, and carry it through to all your days. To quote my favorite movie, Brokeback Mountain,
"It could be like this, just like this, always."
